General Mach Discussion / Re: Help for macro probe

« on: June 16, 2006, 09:18:08 PM »

The probe macro needs to be added to the SetZheight button in Mach3. just copy the code from the forum, go into mach3 under config select edit button script. The set height button should be flashing, click on it and paste the code from the form into it. now do a file save and then close the VB editor. now save the screen layout  under view and you are done

hope that helps

You will have to write some code to set the Pos of the motors in Mach3 to the pos of the Encoders when you move the axis by hand. This should not be that hard to do... Just add code that can read the encoder pos and set the Mach3 pos when the button that enables the drives is pressed. should be that simple

I have not tested this but I think it can be done... You are only going to be able to read at 8KHz from the printer port so keep that in mind. Also to get this working you are going to have to do some VB coding...

on the righthand side you can tell how far to move the origin OR you can move the origin in the DXF and tell LCAM not to move the origin in the load options
